Thanks.
I'm still a bit confused. I already had a working image with my old CPU - snow leopard by hazzard but now that same image gets the vm panic on my upgraded FX-8150 processor. If I can somehow mount the old drive that snowleopard is installed on, can I just swap the kernel with the one that RAW-X86 compiled? Is there anything else needed other than that 1 file? If I boot my image, I see Chameleon v2.0-RC3, and hit F8, I see that I can go: kernel_name (must be in /). So, I could just name it kernel-rawx86, and keep my existing kernel, i suppose... In Linux, you'd have modules in /lib/modules, initrd and System.map, so I'm not sure on all the kernel dependencies. Unrealized, you say to use Atkos L2 and run OSInstall.mpkg, but I don't have a working OSX at all right now it's a catch-22 I'm faced with, and Atkos L2 says it does not work for AMD according to their site. Right now, I actually don't care whether I use snow leopard or lion. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance |

iAtkos L2 *is* Intel only, meaning you cant use the disc to install. You can drop in the kernel after launching the install from Snow Leo

Thanks. I discovered that iAtkos L2 was intel only.
I have an update on my situation. I was able to boot up my OSX image on a friend's machine. I planted both of RAW-X86's kernels in /. I then rebooted, and hit F8, then specified RAW-X86's kernel with /kernel_name -v busratio=18. It actually worked! The lion kernel one didn't work, but I didn't expect it to, as i was using it on Snow Leopard. On my friend's machine, I confirmed that RAW-X86's kernel was usable with my system. I could ssh in, and run apps. I was worried about a lot of kernel dependencies to files on the filesystem. I went home to try out my new image. Using RAW-X86's kernel, I got past the kernel panic about the vm_set_color_pages. I got excited when I was the OSX background and icons at the bottom. However, the VM froze up after that I couldn't ping it either. I tried it again, and was able to ping it for a short period and even SSH into it, but after a certain part in the bootup, the VM freezes. I am able to boot into single user mode with -s. Safe mode with -x prompts me for a graphic login, but freezes once I login. So, that has not changed. I tried looking for /var/log/system and /var/log/kernel in single user mode, but nothing was really obvious to me. I disabled USB3 in the BIOS from a suggestion from a response to a bug post that RAW-X86 initially refers to, but that didn't change anything I tried so many permutations of flags, like vcpus=1 -force64 arch=i386 ForceRootUID=0 GraphicsEnabler=yes, etc... Ideas? I guess I just need to know what's causing it to crash when the GUI starts up. single user mode works fine. |

does your kernel work with phenom cpus or just with bulldozer?

Would someone mind posting step by step instructions. i couldnt figure anything out that RAW did because its all in Russian to me.
I have an AMD FX 4100 and have tried every single kind of install and loader you can find. It seemed that the iDeneb 1.4 was going to work but after the install then it just sat there after the restart and never would load the OS. Other than that I got the same panic error everyone else is getting. |

I gave up and switched to an intel laptop that I had laying around
I wouldn't mind getting it working on my 8-core AMD server though. |

i would also like to know how to do this. I am also trying to run Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and am using the Snow_Leopard_10.6.1-10.6.2_SSE2_SSE3_Intel_AMD_by_Hazard.iso. I am trying to run it using VirtualBox. I havent tried any parameters yet at startup but it also gives me the vm_page_set_colors error. I downloaded the R.A.W. modified kernal but couldnt figure out how to use it. Any help would be much appreciated, THANKS.
